The social phobia substitute will not dream of the band girl

...

..

"Hey, do you want to go to such an amazing stage?"

Although he was a little surprised, he was not shaken at all. After all, Asakura Toru was the kind of person who would do whatever Hiranobu said. This was absolute trust based on understanding and bond.

"Hmm...will you be happy?"

"Yes, both Hina and everyone in the audience will."

"What about Ping Xin?"

"Yes, after all, seeing everyone shining brightly makes me feel excited too—"

Ping Xin was absolutely not lying. Even if he tried hard to become a normal person, the fact that there was once a void in his heart would not disappear. So to this day, he still likes to see others as greater than himself.

...But you still have to pretend to be cool!

If you don't return home when you are rich, it's like walking in fine clothes at night. If you don't pretend to be cool, how can you be handsome?

"Then I'll join in, Hina~"

Ichikawa Hina was very happy, in various senses and for various reasons, but in the end she made a choice of her own will that she would never regret.

"T-on a stage like that, I'm going to...I have to work really hard!"

Although Koito is easily timid, if something really happened she would definitely take down-to-earth action like this.

Chapter 4000 Speaking of Higuchi~ ()

"What about Enka? ...What do you think?"

"......ha--"

Facing the gazes of four people at the same time, Higuchi Enka just sighed.

"Since you're all participating, I'll join in too. Everything is according to your plan anyway, right?"

In response to Enka's unsubstantiated accusation, Hirashin simply smiled and replied, "Even I can't predict everything... If the world ever becomes that boring, I'd rather just die."

"...You can't say that. It's an unlucky topic."

Asakura Toru suddenly stood up, stepped forward, and blocked Hira Nobu's mouth with his fingers to prevent him from speaking any further.

"Ahaha~ This topic isn't interesting at all~"

Hinana, who was lying on the sofa next to him, put down the phone she had been holding and complained to him with an unhappy expression and tone.

"That's right! If someone dies for a reason like this, everyone will be sad!"

Fukumaru Koito is the one who executes justice, and she always strikes hard when she is in the team.

"...Before you speak, I hope you can carefully consider your current identity, Mr. Nihilism."

Higuchi Enka folded her hands across her chest and closed her eyes, looking as if she was out of sight and out of mind.

But in fact, from her trembling eyelashes, it can be seen that she is secretly watching the reactions of several people. Isn't she doing this because of Ping Xin?

The answer to this question is only known to her.

......

...

..

"Higuchi, you were secretly practicing before, right?"

"..."

Seeing Hiranobu floating beside her, Higuchi Enka knew that he must have used some unknown ability to hide his body at this moment, and this also gave her a reason to ignore him.

Pingxin didn't care. If you treat me as if I don't exist, then just continue to treat it as it is. I hope I will still have this attitude after I follow you home.

"Look, look, this is my recommendation, this week's ranking is..."

"Wow, that's really great."

Diagonally opposite Enka and the "empty seat" next to her, two girls who looked most like JKs were chatting.

The former is probably an idol fan, while the second person's identity is unclear. I don't know whether he agrees, appreciates, or has other ideas in mind.

However, the only reason Heishin became interested in them was that Enka looked at them a little longer just now.

"I'm so happy!...Ah, the greatest hits album is out too..."

The first girl seemed to be a high-quality fan who knew how to post popcorn. Ping Xin flew over and took a look, and found that it was actually his own artist, so he silently thanked her for her generosity.

No matter it's true love or not, thank you for your popcorn~

However, speaking of Noctchill, Enka and the others, due to some coincidences, they are taking the traffic route. Although they have released many "cover songs", they still lack some necessary things as idols——

Aside from various talent shows, they've held a few mini-live shows that were live-streamed online, but they haven't had any large-scale offline concerts, and they haven't released the usual scammy peripherals or small albums...

Although he is very knowledgeable about product marketing, his understanding of idol marketing is slightly different from the general industrialization, so he appears to be a little less "professional".

However, for the band that already has three or more original songs, now is an opportunity to start preparing the first version of the album, and then wait for the music festival to sell well...

The above content only appeared in Pingxin's mind for a moment, and all Enka could see was someone rubbing his chin as if he was planning something, and a naughty smile that made her legs go weak subconsciously.

"...That's a disgusting laugh."

Even if her legs are weak, her mouth will not be weak. Higuchi Enka will hold her breath in front of Hiranobu, and she will never give up even if she is often tormented for this reason.

"...Ah, this kid, the one who's been the subject of much discussion ever since his debut."

"I know her, she was my former classmate."

The two JKs sitting diagonally opposite talked about other idols.

"Hey, which one?"

"Look, this girl is Enka."

Pingxin flew over curiously. Although he could guess some clues from Enka's extra glance, there were really many girls named Madoka. Should he take a look?

Take a look, they are photos of her when she was a model and reports made by the publicity department.

Confirmed, then made an expression towards Enka—

"..."

Well, of course there was no response, and it didn't seem like they were really good friends, so Ping Xin shrugged.

"Hey, that's cute!"

"Yeah, after all, she's pretty and stood out immediately. But I never thought she'd be in this line of work. How should I put it... [hmm]"

"Ahahaha, what the—"

It's indeed a meaningless conversation. What's so funny about it?

Unable to find anything funny, Ping Xin poked Enka's face, but the latter remained unmoved.

Well, the manual creation of humor failed.

It's just that the person is sitting right across from you, but you can't see him. It turns out that humans only see what they want to see.

"...What are you looking at me for?"

"Hmm... I don't know, maybe it's because I want to see you right now~"

Even if they are blind, I will never miss you... Isn't it too embarrassing to say such a thing?

I... am not really suitable for this kind of character.

At this time, the second girl sitting diagonally across from her said, "No, I just remember saying to this girl, 'You're so cute, why don't you become an idol?' But she said she wasn't interested and that she 'didn't like to flatter anyone.'... Humph! But in the end, she still did it. Laughing~"

"I laughed too~"

Although the previous part may be just fabricated, this sentence does sound like something Enka would say.

"Sure enough, maybe I've been spotted by a talent scout... That's great."

"But it's also possible that he came here on his own?"

Oh, you guessed it right.

"..."

Higuchi Enka rejected Hirashin's request for interaction.

But at the same time, the two people over there were getting more and more excited:

"You want to become a national beauty!"

"Ahaha, your dreams are so big, it's true that cute girls are different."

"I really can't imitate it—"

Eastern media sometimes just talk nonsense about beauties who appear once in a decade, once in a century, once in a thousand years or even once in ten thousand years. Is your country's history really ten thousand years long?

But if they continue talking, some random things might come out. Will Enka mind?

"Want to go to another car?"

"... unnecessary."

Well, it seems that it is not necessary...at least on the surface.

"Are you okay?"

"What is it?"

It is indeed unnecessary to ask such questions to the cold and stubborn little beauty.

"Don't answer a question with a question... Don't you mind being gossiped about in front of your face?"

"...Everyone goesssips, but it's impossible to completely stop talking about them, right? And what's the point of caring about them?"

"Eh, but I won't say bad things about others behind their backs, okay~?"

"..."

Is this the reason you confront people?

Enka wanted to complain, but if she did, she would just be dragged into his rhythm, so she didn't say anything—

Never will!

"...Why did you suddenly change your appearance?"

Although she decided not to speak, there were no penalties, vows, or rules to restrict her, so no one would know even if Enka broke the rules.

This was all because Ping Xin, who was originally floating in the air, suddenly put on formal clothes that were rarely seen in normal times. No one knew where he took out this navy blue double-breasted suit from, and he even wore brooches, cufflinks, handkerchiefs and other matching decorations on it.

The dark silver buttons with intricate patterns and gorgeous gold thread would probably be just decoration on someone else, but this person has always been more "serious", even going so far as to assume that "if I get into trouble in a foreign country one day, I can use it to exchange for some money."

"Ahem...Speaking of which, how's everyone preparing for tomorrow's show?"

"?"

Although she had no idea what Hirayuko was up to, or why he'd suddenly put on a formal outfit that was so formal it looked out of place on the train, Enka would still answer properly when it came to business:

"Don't you usually improvise the whole process? Have you finally run out of ideas and can't come up with anything new?"

"No, no, no, after all, I am the man who inherited the 4001st year of the fierce life..."

Ping Xin waved his hands, but for some reason his back stopped moving, and his voice was a little more shrill than usual.

"?"

The meaning is unclear, but fortunately, Enka has been accustomed to such "irrational" people since she was a child.

"But if I wanted to come up with something interesting, wouldn't it be hard for everyone to come up with it? After all, creativity is like a bottom line; it's often only after it's been developed that people realize, 'There's actually something possible.'"

"..."

This is indeed true. If she had not encountered "out-of-specification" beings like Ichikawa Hina and Asakura Toru, her understanding of "people" would not have expanded to what it is now -

Oh, and there is this man in front of me who keeps pushing the boundaries, the worst man in history.

"Wang~"

"...mind reading?"
